Does anyone use one of these for exercise? I bought one today and had fun with it and got a heck of a workout trying to play tennis!

yes I use mine everyday. I play outdoor challenge against my kids. They are really competitive so I usually end up sweating and out of breath 2 hours later and still haven't won. LOL

I was playing the biggest loser game for Wii before i was in a car accident and that was REALLY helping! You work up a great sweat and it gives you an awesome workout. Its like the show and you have to complete challenges and so on and it keeps track of your progress of everything you're doing. Unfortunately I am unable to use it right now due to several broken bones, but as soon as I am able to I will definitely start using it again. Its very helpful and I would definitely recommend it!

We have a Wii and I recently got the Just Dance 2 game because my 11 yr old loves music so I thought this was something him and I could do together. Has anyone else tried this? And if so how much of a workout you get from that if any?

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
